Electronic device and image capture module thereof

Abstract

An image capture module includes a housing, a camera unit, and a shielding element. In this case, the housing has a first opening. The camera unit is accommodated in the housing and is adjacent to the first opening. The first opening exposes at lest one portion of the camera unit. The shielding element is disposed between the camera unit and the housing. The shielding element is disposed around the camera unit such that the shielding element and the camera unit cover the first opening.
